Part 2/10:
With her savings running low, Gem took a moment for introspection. She realized that if her cats were already training her wallet, why not get them to "earn their keep"? This idea sparked a childhood dream—opening a café with cats. As a child, Gem had envisioned running a coffee shop filled with feline friends, blending her love for animals with her entrepreneurial spirit.
However, she was aware of the financial challenges involved in starting such a venture. Starting a café requires significant capital, which she lacked, especially since she was already supporting two cats. This recognition sharpened her focus on practical steps to achieve her dream, such as understanding the importance of location, market demand, and managing costs.
